The easiest way to do that is to remove the DRL (daytime running lights) fuse from the fuse box. The fuse box is located on the drivers side to the left of the pedals. It's not directly next to the pedals but kinda closer to the drivers side door. Once you located the fuse box slide off the panel to access the compartment, follow the diagram on the backside to find DRL (I think its the third fuse from the left on the bottom row), then remove the fuse using a proper tool or a key to pop it out. At that point your DRL's will be off...the only thing is that you will see a little orange DRL light show up on your dash. If that bothers you I'm sure you can find a way to turn off that warning light but since it didn't bother me I didn't look into it. Hope that helps

YEA that works, I just took apart my cluster and taped over the DRL light so it doesn't shine anymore! What a relief.

I don't think that's necessary, as I hope people know how to remove and read the fuse panel.

Its not the fuse panel its taking the cluster apart to cover up the DRL lights that lights up once the fuse is out.
